Who Would Benefit?
This programme is for those who wish to improve how they prepare for and deliver virtual presentations.
While we focus on virtual presentations – the skills gained on this programme are relevant to any situation where you have to communicate verbally. This means that tools, techniques and skills are transferrable to help you to communicate with added impact in any virtual or face-to-face communications.
While we do cover theory, we do it in a way that facilitates learning by discovery, making the content easier to digest and much more memorable.
Although this is a group event, we make it personal to each attendee.
Before attending the virtual masterclass (via Zoom) we send you a link to our video platform. Through this platform, you have the opportunity to answer some short questions which helps us to get a better idea of your needs.
This means that even though it is a group event, the facilitator can focus on the individual needs of each trainee so that they can get the most from the programme.
"A really enjoyable session with great facilitators. A great balance of participation. We were made to feel very comfortable in a virtual surrounding. Highly recommended for anyone struggling with virtual presentations. Thank you!"

"Really enjoyed taking part in the training. The facilitator was natural and very informative. Lots learnt and I feel a lot more confident and aware of how to present myself on and offline."
How we train:
This programme is participatory, fast-moving and will focus on you learning through discovery rather than “lecture-style” delivery.
We deliver via Zoom, using a variety of interactive digital tools and delivery techniques to make this virtual programme varied and engaging. These include:
- Breakout rooms to allow participants to discuss topics in small groups
- Online polls and interactive noticeboard for brainstorming and gathering ideas
- Several opportunities for attendees to contribute formally and ad hoc
- Opportunity for each attendee to do a very short introductory virtual presentation (structure supplied in advance)
- Individual reflection time
- 1 to 1 personalised feedback to each individual on their short introductory virtual presentation.
Before the programme we send you a link to our video platform - typically you will receive this a few days before the programme. Your facilitator will introduce themselves to you and let you know a bit more about the programme. You have the opportunity to let us know a bit more about you and your specific needs via video to us. With the insights you share, this allows us to address your needs as an individual even though you are on a group programme.
During the programme you will receive 1 to 1 feedback on your presentation. Specifically, in the first module you receive this in a breakout room, 1 to 1 with your facilitator. They will give you feedback on what you are doing well and give very specific guidance on how to improve.
After the programme, you will be given lifetime access to a client only area on our website where we have helpful videos, books, talks, blogs and in-depth downloadable programme notes.
"The facilitator is extremely knowledgeable in the area and created a safe and fun environment in which to learn the valuable tips and techniques provided. I will certainly apply this learning to improve communication /presentation skills going forward and would recommend it to others."
